And it’s said retirement is a time to relax and slow the pace. Not when there are Narrowboat jobs to do! Very productive few days on Tiller Girl with stern doors and surround painted and now an orange Tiller! 😁Sara Winskill

A cracking weekend with the boat girls (Three idle women)on the River Soar. Crafty Friends UK Birthday celebration for Sara Winskill and lots of laughs. 🤣😂🫣
But why oh why do boats feel it’s ok to moor for lunch on the lock landing! 🤨😫

I have just spoken to the CRT regarding the blocked and overflowing Elsan at Trent Lock. The wagon came to clear it yesterday but had to leave due to aggressive verbal abuse from someone who objected to the smell! 😳
It is rescheduled for tomorrow with support for the wagon driver to make sure he is safe. Canal & River Trust East Midlands.
